Join us for an interactive session where you’ll step into the role of a wholesale electricity trader. Using your laptop as a trading station, you’ll participate in online power exchange simulations that capture the impact of climate policies (carbon taxes, subsidies) and climate-driven uncertainties (heat waves, storms, renewable variability). Through multiple trading rounds, you’ll place bids, watch the market clear in real time, and see how prices, emissions, and profits shift under different scenarios. Together, we’ll explore how uncertainty in climate and policy shapes market dynamics and the profitability of power generation assets.
